25 students from Chemistry of the University of Navarra have taught them what baboplast is or why a diaper absorbs liquids.
A group of 25 students from Chemistry of the University of Navarra has shown, through 13 different experiments, the presence of this science in our daily life to more than 1,500 students of secondary school and high school diploma of Navarra.
The sessions were held in 18 centers in the region between January 17 and 26.
